Lost Planet: Extreme Disappointment

Unfortunately, according to ExtremeTech the demo is a big disappointment on a number of levels.

"Sure, it begins with a caveat that it's still under development and will be better upon release. But the controls are still very console-centric, the performance isn't up to snuff, and as for DirectX 10…well, you're better off avoiding it."

So for all its bells and whistles it might still end up another lazy console port? A shame.

I never like playing games like this on the PC. I rather playing RTS, MMO and FPS. Since this game plays better with a gamepad instead of a keyboard... and I already own a 360.... I think paying 50-$60 for the game instead of building a new PC to be able to run the game is an easier pill to swallow.

Black Republican6946d ago

yesss sirrryyyy
I just like gaming on consoles much better

1 - way more comfortable - I don't feel comfortable having a beer on my pc desk while I play

2 - i like that i do not have to adjust any settings - the ideal settings are optimized for the game on a console when the game is created - with a pc you have to tweak and mess around with stuff

3 - with a pc you constantly need to upgrade hardware to get the best graphics

Personally, I think that 3rd Person Shooters work very well, if not better on PC's than on consoles. The same controls that apply to FPS also apply to 3rd PS's, with the same benefits of increased accuracy, and speed. Look at Tomb Raider Legends or Star Wars Battle Front. It all depends on the implementation. Other than that Nvidia and ATI need to get their DX10 SH*T together, or MS really needs to get onboard and help them optimize their hardware and drivers. Having a crappy game be the herald of DX10 does nothing good for DX10's image.

and a cable from the PC to your TV, you could have a PC in your office and play in your room with some comfort.

I have this setup and already use from some PC exclusives that is not so mouse dependent.

WilliamRLBaker6946d ago

Its not microsofts thats lagging, I've read the papers and they are literally throwing support at companies for vista and dx10, yet the companies just seem to be lagging, It will more then likely be a year before we see any truely good support, Around the time vista SP1 is released.

5 Capcom Games that Deserve the Resident 2 2019 Treatment

Resident Evil 2 2019 launches in a few short weeks and it looks, and plays, amazing. Capcom has taken the classic and renowned title and not only modernized the visuals but added new content to keep the experience fresh for veterans who played the original. But there are some games that deserve the same treatment from Capcom. Here are 5 games from Capcom that deserve the Resident Evil 2 2019 treatment.

Not another one of these “treatment” articles

darthv722697d ago

Remasters are still popular so... yeah.

I personally like when there are remastered compilations. More than just remaking one game but to take a couple (or more) in a series and remake them as one nice compilation. Viewtiful Joe comes to mind. to have a full remake of all the games on one disc would be sweet.

I know many want to see Powerstone come back (as do I) but i'd go even deeper into their vault and bring back darkstalkers, cyberbots or even project justice / rival schools combo.

FallenAngel19842697d ago

This isn’t a remaster it’s a remake

galmi2698d ago

well for me there's
dino crisis
clock tower
haunting ground
resident evil 3
the whole onimusha series (except 4)
chaos legion
crimson tears
ring of red

PapaBop2698d ago

Imagine Clock Tower done in a similar style to RE7 in first person with VR support.. that would be so so damn good.

SuperDuke12902698d ago

That would be superawesome

JonTheGod2698d ago

I loved Haunting Ground. Very underrated.

Adexus2698d ago

Onimusha instantly came to mind.

JonTheGod2698d ago

Already happening (although it's a remaster as opposed to a remake).

Adexus2697d ago

Yeeeah, I definitely wouldn't say that's nearly on the level the RE2 Remake is.

monkey6022698d ago (Edited 2698d ago )

This is a horrible list!
There are a load of titles far more deserving of a remaster than these picks. Seriously ! Dead Rising, Lost Planet and Dragons Dogma aren't even old games and have had recent sequels already!

Top of the list should be Dino Crisis,
I'll accept Resi 3 because I'm hoping that happens.
Clock tower and Haunting Ground are good choices too, It would be nice to be able to get them for a non extortionate rate.

Shadow of Rome was an amazing game and I'd love a remaster or new entry but I genuinely don't think they'd get away with it today unless it was massively toned down

Vetalka832698d ago

Resident Evil 3 yes,Dino Crisis games?Yes.Onimusha 2 hell yes.never got to play Powerstone properly so yeah i would love to see it remade,others on that list i just dont care about.
